Oldham to enjoy more away success

Oldham are a good away side and they have won on four of their last six League Two away trips. They can get another win at Shrewsbury on Saturday.

Oldham are nine places above Shrewsbury in the table, with 21 points separating the two teams. Oldham, ninth, have won 17 of their 41 games this season, while Shrewsbury have just 12 wins.

Oldham have conceded an average of just 0.65 goals a game in their 20 League Two games against bottom-half teams this season, while Shrewsbury have shipped 1.70 goals on average in their 23 matches against top-half sides.

Shrewsbury are out of form, and backing their opponents during their current run of six defeats in eight League Two games would have resulted in a profit of 7.55 units.

Oldham have scored in 12 of their last 13 league games and they have found the net in eight League Two games in a row.

Shrewsbury’s supporters haven’t had too much to cheer about in recent games, with the home side failing to win five of their last six League Two matches. They have lost three of their last four League Two home games.

Shrewsbury have been disappointing in front of goal at home this season, scoring just 19 goals in 21 League Two games – an average of 0.90 goals per game.

With four of Oldham’s last six League Two games producing three goals or more and Shrewsbury being beaten by a single goal in two of their last three matches, a 2-1 win for Oldham looks a decent correct-score bet.
